Thanks for joining me for another 'Bottoms Up'This week we have one from our friend and fellow blogger HermioneMy favourite implement, hands down, is the rose paddle handmade by John
at Leatherthorne.

It's beautifully made and the rose gives it an elegant
touch. It's a handy size and easy to pack for travelling. It is also a
traditional implement; its shape immediately comes to mind when I hear
the word "paddle". But best of all is the way it feels on my skin. It
packs a wallop but isn't severe, and the sound it makes when it connects
is pleasing for both of us. The picture is yours, not mine, but isn't
it nice that we both have such good taste in paddles?

My least favourite (and I have several of those to choose from) is the
red loop.

It really cuts, and is quite nasty unless used very carefully
and gently (is that even possible?) It doesn't come out too often, and
when it does it must be when the neighbours are out, as I am very vocal
when it's used.Thank you Hermione. Oh yes the Rose paddle is definitely my favourite as well. I don't think John makes them anymore. I don't like the look of your red loop. You are very brave.Don't forget, if any bottoms, male or female who would like to do a
review of their least (or favourite) implement (you don't have to have a
blog) and why, please email me ronniesoul@gmail.com. I'll keep it
secret if it's just for me but if it's OK for me to post it please say
so. Pictures are always good.

I haven't been spanked for more than a week and it's no good. I've had
spanking droughts before but this one is getting to me because I've been
charged with some tasks by my husband and told I must get them done,
he's relying on me to provide my womanly opinion and those of friends
and acquaintances on the subject of cosmetics.

Now all women know about cosmetics, we build our knowledge over the
years and it becomes second nature but try analysing all you've learned
and going through products individually and explaining them to a man.
What's good, what's bad, which companies lie, what does and doesn't
work, what makes me buy or consider buying a new product, all sorts of
things he wants to know. And not just from me because he accepts that
different users may get a different experience from the same product.

P wants to know all this stuff because his age old China partner and
friend have an opportunity to cooperate with a nascent Korean cosmetics
company which would like to get into Europe via the UK. They are young
but vibrant and Korea has a good reputation in that sector of personal
care, which P thinks might be ripe for disruption. God the stuff he gets
into.

Anyway I'm doing my bit as best I can but every time I ask someone
about it they want to talk about it over coffee or tea or a beer and
it's time consuming and P isn't interested in the chit chat (but he
should be) all he wants is my collective findings neatly summarised and
explained in a way that a man can understand. Now he's quite serious
about this and I'm taking it seriously too, I've even enlisted the help
of my hairdresser whose salon does beauty treatments too, but it means
I'm being basically good and constructive and not getting into the sort
of situations which get me spanked, well not so far.

I suppose I could ask for a reward spanking at the end of it but he
doesn't generally go for that sort of thing. I can't foul up because it
might become important, well it already is or he wouldn't have asked me
to help and in any case I like that he has. Perhaps I could have a beer
too many with one of my friends, or pretend to have done, and use stress
relief as my excuse. Then he could administer a dose of his own stress
relief, the best sort I know. Or maybe I'll submit a couple of lunch
bills to him and ask for expenses:)

We'll see. But so far it's an interesting but spankless task and this woman wants both.

I love the sound it makes both on
the way to the target (usually my bare bottom) and when it lands. I love
the sting and the marks it leaves and the fact that I can feel its
effect for some time afterwards. I really dislike the wooden spoon but I
couldn't say exactly why.

And for a more unusual punishment there's
something about a carpet beater which I like.

Thank you Simon. I'm with you on the cane. We both didn't like the carpet beater.Don't forget, if any bottoms, male or female who would like to do a
review of their least (or favourite) implement (you don't have to have a
blog) and why, please email me ronniesoul@gmail.com. I'll keep it
secret if it's just for me but if it's OK for me to post it please say
so. Pictures are always good.

See you next Wednesday for another 'Bottoms Up'.RonniexxLet me know if any of the pictures are yours.
